Water is of fundamental importance for life on earth. The synthesis and structure of cell
constituents and transport of nutrients into the cells as well as body metabolism depend on …

Graphene nanosheets (GNS) such as graphenes and graphene oxides (GOs) have been
widely investigated as next-generation adsorbents in both water and wastewater treatment …

The use of biologically activated carbon (BAC) in drinking water purification is reviewed. In
the past BAC is seen mostly as a polishing treatment. However, BAC has the potential to …

This review paper serves to describe the composition and activity of a biologically active
carbon (BAC) biofilm used in water purification. An analysis of several physical–chemical …

Abstract Persistent, Mobile, and Toxic (PMT) and very persistent and very mobile (vPvM)
substances are a growing threat to water security and safety. Many of these substances are …

Abstract Granulated Activated Carbon (GAC) filtration is a common process for advanced
wastewater treatment. In such filters, the removal of organic substances results from …

Bioregeneration is defined as the renewal of the adsorptive capacity of activated carbon by
microorganisms for further adsorption. Bioregeneration of activated carbon increases the …

Current knowledge on the physical, chemical and biological mechanisms involved in the
removal of biogenic taste and odour (T&O) compounds by granular and biological activated …

While disinfection provides hygienically safe drinking water, the disinfectants react with
inorganic or organic precursors, leading to the formation of harmful disinfection byproducts …

Abstract Development of unconventional oil and gas (O&G) resources through hydraulic
fracturing has surged in recent years. While declines in oil prices have temporarily reduced …
